Okay as we’re going through that phase where we’ve finished watching a string of good shows and have found ourselves without something interesting enough to hold our attention… well enough to distract us away from work and life. We thought we would reflect on actors/ actresses in dramas- in this case repeat offenders- you know what we’re talking about- those people who happen to be in everything all the bloody time that you’re completely sick of the sight of them!

Over exposed to another level- We’ve concluded that the Japanese drama scene must be a small industry because you happen to see the same faces over and over again and in some cases we really don’t get why!

So here is our list of offenders- who should consider taking a break- possibly starting up a fashion line or a perfume range (Why do celebrities always choose fashion& perfume- strange?) and then returning after a time where we can appreciate their return to showbiz.

J-Drama repeat culprits include:

Oguri Shun– This guy has been solidly working since 1995 and hasn’t taken a break since! He must have made a pact with the devil because he’s been in a string of super popular shows and to be frank we really don’t get why!?? Especially his acting in Hana Kimi- dear oh dear so bad!

Horikita Maki -Okay we admit that Maki is beautiful AND can actually act. So we get it why the industry want her so much but seriously we can’t watch another Horikita Maki drama for a long time just because it’s too much already. You’re a young girl- take a break already and return when we can actually appreciate and miss you, please.

T- Drama repeat culprits include:

Chen Qiao En– Actually looking at her dramawiki, she hasn’t worked as much as either of the ones above but boy does it feel like it. Maybe it’s because she too made a pact with the devil and has appeared in a string of successful dramas like Fated to Love you and Easy Fortune Happy Life.

Mike He– We love you Mike but we knew you were over exposed when you popped up in a random episode of Yukan Club with really rubbish Japanese. Hahahah

K- Drama repeat offenders include:

We struggled to think of anyone for this list mainly because the guys will at one point go off to the army and return to look even hotter- with muscles and that perfected manly look/ possible broody stare. Look at Go Soo he-he.

We also struggled with possible female leads only because there is such a large selection of good female actresses for directors to select. -So their off the hook for now.

Our advice is simple- just say no. Spend some of that hard earned money and relax for a bit.

Haha everyone’s entitled to their own opinion. But I guess it can’t be helped since the two characters you’ve seen him play are pretty much the same person only on a different income level.
The first role I saw him in was Gokusen where he plays a bleach-blonde thug who really just loves his mommy deep down. Then a geeky geek with off the chart amounts of UST with Miura Haruma in Binbo Danshi. Then as another thug with a really terrible hair cut in Crows Zero and Crows Zero 2. Then bullied dweeb in GTO and an assortment of roles here and there.
I’m not shy to admit it. I’m a GREAT fan! >D
